Dial Scale Removal
#3

AI2V Wrote:That 1 1/2 inch perforated disc in the center of the dial- put the tips of your needle nosed pliers in the holes and turn counter-clockwise just a bit. The disc will fall off; the dial simply pulls off the two pins.

In getting a replacement I recommend Mark Oppat at Antique Audio (moppat@comcast.net ); his dials are nearest to the original in color although somewhat darker. The RockSea dials are VERY light in color and look odd in my opinion.

Hey, thanks for the info. I didn't realize it was that simple. I'll give it a
try. Thanks for the advice on dial covers as well. I've only bought one in my radio career from RocksSea and you're correct, looks a bit brighter than usual, but I do like it. Thanks again for the helpful advice. GB.
